Route refinement

I'm working with G.'s advice to improve the route for the second day. I suspect that he is a little more traffic-shy than I am, but nevertheless if there is a quieter road then even if it is a little further it is worth considering.

On the same front, the section that I was looking forward to the least in terms of traffic, from Greve to the San Giovanni Valdarno, I have now considered alternatives for. Basically there is no other route that doesn't add a lot more climbing, bad dirt roads and/or many extra kilometres. In any event if Google Street View is typical then the traffic isn't bad. There were very few cars when the Google car went through and there was one bicycle. I think we'll stick to this route.
